I found this one to be one of the better stories. Not so much because of the character, but because of the story itself and the way it is written.
He tells how he came to live on Tatooine (which would make an interesting novel itself) and why he stayed.
He's a big collector of music and part of the story is him trying to arrange to see the cantina band, who he thinks are fantastic.
This is another good example of expanding Star Wars, not relying on it.
Sounds nice! I've never read a Star Wars novel and enjoyed it, but these short stories seem like they'd be right up my alley.
Something I really dis-like about the EU is that everyone seems to be a hero or a villain with an amazing, action-packed story to tell. I'm much more interested in the average Joe and smaller stories that don't effect the whole universe. I'll be checking this one out.
